The Young Person's Retreat is for anyone aged 13-18 who would like to spend the weekend exploring life and themselves through the lens of the Buddha's wisdom. The weekends aim to be a mix of meditation, good food, reflection, activity and friendship in the beautiful setting of Amaravati Monastery. You don't have to be a Buddhist or know a lot about Buddhism to join, but we do expect all participants to follow the five precepts as a minimum.

Sister Tisara will lead the weekend this year, helped by other sangha members. The theme for the weekend is 'Open Enquiry'.
